The World's Biggest Custard Pie Fight

We're working with the World Custard Pie Championship to break the record for the biggest custard pie fight (very serious business). Join the CarFest Team in our attempt!

Car-nival

We’re bringing the buzz of Rio Carnival to the fields of CarFest. Enjoy steel drums, stilt walkers, marching bands and samba dancers. Want your family to be part of the fun? Enter the Car-nival parade competition now and your family could be leading the parade.

Steam World

Discover a world of vintage rides and attractions. Carter’s Steam Fair will be bringing 2 acres (a whole football pitch) of rides; in addition, there will be a beautiful selection of steam automobiles brought to you by the NTET - we’ve all gone steaming mad!

Dance Fest Massive

We’ll be bringing you shapes, music and sequins from morning until night. With TV dancing stars, Kevin and Karen, hosting masterclasses plus dance workshops from around the world. Try your hand at Hungarian Folk, Swing or even African drums!

Showground Arena

We’re delighted to announce that Bolesworth International Horse Show will be with us for the whole weekend hosting daily show jumping. Watch top jockeys competing in this magnificent arena. Also across the weekend; motor bike stunt shows and the fabulously silly Sharkey and George.

Lake Activity

Looking for some serious speed? Watch the UK’s top model power boats battle it out in the OMRA speed trials. If you would prefer to have a go, then the British Canoeing Association will be on hand to get you in the water.
